It's Been a While

I'm not sure the last time it has been this long since I wrote. I have a small excuse... I was doing school. I have been taking the coding class and finally completed that. In April I have a date set to take the certification test and then I'll be a certified coder. While I'm super excited, but also very nervous to take this big of a test. The test is is about 6 hours long. So the past few months I've been reading a lot and taking a lot of quizzes to prepare for a very long, nerve wracking test.  
The kids have healed from their surgeries. I have had these pictures on my phone for a while. Camden had a nice set up to help his face feel better. 
 Who could help color one of these. I'm not sure Cam thought it was as funny. 
Camden was super excited to get his stents out and had to keep them. He thought they looked cool. They looked pretty nasty though. 
 We had Hayden and Dylan over, and everyone was in heaven. We got our baby fill with sweet Dylan and Emery and Jacks love playing with Hayden. She wears them out with all of her energy. 



 Kids are cute. While everyone is ready for their own space, they also all really do love each other. 
 Can you see the little dark spot in the corner of the window? That is Luna. She has major FOMO and loves most to look out windows. Brad and I left and Cam was playing the piano so Luna made a run for the window. She knows she's not supposed to do that, but she's a dog and didn't care. Both of the dogs are loving the warmer weather and just love being outside in the sun. 
 Valentines Day just passed and Emery was the only one who had to make a box. Of course she wanted to make an iPhone, apps and all. 
 The time to move to Boise is getting closer and closer. We have decided to rent for a few years to get a better feel for the area. Every day we look for new places to rent. The hardest part about this whole process is we are about two hours away and picking up every time we see a house we like. It seems like most of the houses seem to get rented out within a week or so. The kids had two days off of school, so Brad and I both took Monday off. There was a house we liked so we made a quick trip up to Boise to look at it. We liked the house, but are still going to look at a few more. Before we went home we stopped at Cheesecake Factory for a late lunch. As we were paying our bill the waitress told us someone wanted to get us a piece of cheesecake. When we got it, it had a note along with it. It was such a kind cool experience for us all. 
The new year was good. We just hung out at home playing games and eating snacks. The kids made goals for church. Beck made a goal of learning how to cook more and has been making a meals about once every 2 weeks. He's been doing a pretty good job with it too. 
Camden has been busy with the play he is doing. Being the Cat has meat a lot of practices, but he loves it. I think when it ends, he will be more than ready for a little break after school. 
Emery and Jackson are doing robotics once a week at school. They both love it especially building and programing things. 
The kids are getting more and more excited to move and even go to a new school. All of them, except for Camden, want to move down in April with Brad, even if it means changing schools. They like to look at the schools they could be going to and the classes they offer. While it is scary to move to a new city, we are all very excited for the new chapter. Now we just need a place to live, so that stress is gone.
